Hi everyone,
I've tried for a week to get this to display, watched the videos etc but even when I select Launch Control from my track apps, the LC light doesn't come on. I've tried in sport, track and normal modes.
Suspect it maybe a relay or fuse, or maybe as a result of my tune. Anyone seen this before?

Isn't it disabled in OZ for the anti hooning stuff..... like the line lock?

Is your oil pressure reading 'normal'? Mine does not come on until oil gets up to temp.

What does launch control do, in a manual car?

Allows you set your RPM so you can only rev to that RPM while you hold the clutch.

I haven't actually used mine but I've seen these threads a couple times and I think the answer has to do with the driver not holding the brake long enough to activate it. Might want to check into that.

Two things. Engine temp must be up to at least 170 CHT, and you must have traction control ON.

Try those.

Has nothing to do with holding the brake. The light should come on as soon as you turn LC on (and oil pressure is normal). Once turned on, it will remain on (even after shutting car down) until you actually turn it off.

I have mine on all the time, just in case I happen to need it...

Like I said, I've never messed with mine. I've had that little LC on my display since the day I bought it new..lol

The salesman wanted me to do LC and LL both during the test drive..lol. That stupid clutch spring was making me look enough like a newb already, so I wasn't gonna push it.

so a bit of an update. I can actually the LC to display for about 10 - 20 seconds after I start the car but then it turns off. Still is ticked when I go into track apps? Time to go back to Ford I think.

Is there a way to get this installed on a non performance pack eco?
